Wang Yi said that in recent years, the relationship between China and Colombia has maintained a good momentum of development, and the friendship between China and Colombia has been widely supported by the people of both countries. In 2023, the two countries established a strategic partnership, with close exchanges at all levels, new progress in cooperation in various fields, and a breakthrough in bilateral trade volume.
